Australia - Police hunt teen who attacked 2 women near Brisbane

[zwiebel]

Police are searching for a teen between 15 and 18 with sandy blonde hair who attacked two women in separate incidents at Boronia Bushland Reserve near in Logan near Brisbane.

A 26-year-old was knocked down and the teen laid on top of her Thursday morning, then a 39-year-old woman was grabbed in a bear hug and an attempt made to pull her into bushes at the same time in the morning Sunday.

*My note: This sounds startlingly similar to some attacks a while back in the US, where a teen with a mental disability turned out to be responsible. Does anyone recall the case? It was here on WS but I can't recall enough details to find it.

Was the individual ever found? Sounds like a very similar approach to Toyah Cordingley....
